I think only A is the answer because in the question, they asked about SKY; from 1st statement, we can see what is the code for the sky.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

But we can't conclude between sky and is. so D is the right answer.

E should be the correct possible answer because Both the statements follow reverse code pattern in which clear = de.
And both statements have is, it in which 'i' is commonly coded possibly as ra, da wherein i=a one more reverse coding possibility with that sky could be 'fa'.
And both statements have is, it in which 'i' is commonly coded possibly as ra, da wherein i=a one more reverse coding possibility with that sky could be 'fa'.

I agree @Manisha.

E should be the correct answer as the pattern of the language is known from the two sentences. The code is opposite to the text and hence sky can denote to far.

But if you consider only first statement then de is the code for the sky.
Then, why not only first statement is sufficient?
Then, why not only first statement is sufficient?

I think I is correct because within that statement sky is used there, so the first code must refer to it within the translation. Sky was not used in II so you cannot arrive at a code reference from that statement.
